The pads are going in after this weekend when I swap my front rotors. Ill get to see how the ME20s compare to the MA45Bs.

MA45B > ME20 > MX72

Let's see some wheel-level videos with puff of smokes from hard braking!

Ok, registered for this Sunday.

Nice, I'll see you out there. Terry and our other buddy Kyle will be out on Sunday as well. Best part is that I'll use us my last remaining prepaid track day.

Do you use a remote to turn them on at the same time? Remember, I'm just a lowly numbers guy who isn't good with tech stuff. Terry had to show me how to use dashware with my GoPro video to sync up the data.

They were the only ones to run at BRP in Feb...no other groups (including POC and PCA) run at BRP or Chuckwalla in Feb. Joel must have convinced you to buy the 20 day package.

It would be nice (to turn them on all at the same time w/ a remote), but only 1 of 3 is Hero 3. The others (GoPro 1, and Contour) don't have remote capability...

Nope, let him talk me into buying another 10 pack (at certain incentive) while I still had 3 left over from the first 10 pack.

j/k Have fun out there and don't over due it. Be careful though, tracking can be addicting....so I've heard.

haha- that's what it sounds like it's going to be based on what you guys are saying on this thread. I do plan to take it easy though to get used to the track.

surewin · 02-23-2014, 11:56 PM

Ok guys- I have to say that I had the first taste of track cocaine and it was good. I even had some instruction from NASA instructor, Patrick Orozco. Had an awesome time and will definitely go out again.

Hey, just wondering what lap timer app were you using on your iphone? Does it works well compare to those transponders?

Harry's, it's very accurate, and even without external GPS gizmo, the software is very close to transponders.
